The sore throat could be because of a reflux laryngitis. Take Tab Rabeprazole 40mg twice a day in empty stomach( one hour prior to meals) for 7 days then take it once a day in empty stomach in the morning for next 15 days. Continue the other medications as advised. - Start Dispirin gargles for the sore throat. 1tablet of Dispirin dissolved in 1/2 glass of lukewarm water and gargle with the solution 3 times a day for 7 days Apart from medications you need to reduce your caffeine intake to only a single cup of tea/coffee or none. Avoid all spicy and junk food for few days. Try having dinner early and keep a gap of at least an hour between dinner and sleep time. Go for a walk once or twice a day.
